Unrelated, but Stripe's website looks amazing.

It is really cool that Stripe is building Radar, we wanted to use https://siftscience.com for something similar, but they went all corporate, and changed their pricing model before we could implement, so instead of them charging per "transaction" or user action, you now had to pay a minimum of $1000 per month for their smallest offering.

Except the spinning polygon ball. I found it so distracting, I couldn't read the bullet points.

I'm seriously hoping this will make SiftScience reconsider their pricing, but more importantly their handling of customers on legacy plans. Grandfathering? Anyone?

This is a big win for Stripe. Sift is bullying customers into a minimum of 1,000 USD regardless of previous volume or history.

We were in the 10k orders per month around 250 USD with Sift. Now get kicked in the teeth with the minimum 1,000 USD and no real additional value. Not cool.

You know what's cool? Stripe's decision to not charge anyone who was a Stripe Radar user before today. Kudos.

It must be said that Sift does not only apply to Credit Card fraud and has many verticals (content abuse, ecomm, etc), but I think the big stuff is definitely on the chargeback and fraud prevention.
